This is awful its like having your dirty washing one in public - for gods sake Will don't tell anyone I sold you that that Kr1 - I feel like a right dirty fezzing gypo, I recognise most of the rust, dirt and random paint.
I was so ashamed that I bought an ultrasonic cleaner so I never again sell a minging bike to a forum member - you are doing a great job with it though!
